She pushes the tempo off long rebounds or turnovers with her head on a swivel to find teammates or openings to attack herself.  Most often, it's about setting up her teammates with quality finds.  But in the game, she showed enough scoring punch to be accounted for. Including a nice score when her team's star scorer was facing a u0022Box and 1u0022. Marraccini split the top of the box, then came to a good two foot stop and hit a floater over the two defenders at the bottom of the box.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["576992"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Game Watched: vs Broken Arrow, January 30thrnrnDuval has good size and a smooth game as a scorer. She showed a variety of good dribble moves, including behind the backs to change direction and create opportunities for herself or her teammates. The sophomore also embraced the versatility her height affords her, with a good early post up score. The size and control she plays with makes her a handful for defenders, especially when she gets out in transition.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["556315"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Game Watched: vs Inola, March 7thrnrnIn the Class 4A quarterfinals contest, Anderson was a great example of playing fast but not being in a hurry.  When needed to, she was quick and strong attacking the hoop. Where she finished with both hands.  But she also showed some great patience in letting plays develop, including a great Pick and Roll feed in the second half.  The junior's feel for the game feels advance, and just off one viewing it was easy to see why Douglass was successful this year with her pulling the strings.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["572852"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Game Watched: vs Bixby, February 29thrnrnThe shifty sophomore guard was a fun watch with how she got after it on both ends of the court. She has good handles and quickness, which made her a big time threat off the bounce. Especially with some of the finishes she had through contact in the first half.  Late in the game, she also had a great drive and dish to a teammate, who unfortunately missed.  But the clutch play McSwain made to set up a good look still stood out on tape!rnrnOn the defensive end, there were the spark plug like moments that came with tenacious on the ball steals and aggression as an on the ball defender. While also rotating over two different times to take big charges. If the impact on both ends of the court is any indication of a usual game from McSwain, she's a feisty lead guard that will need further monitoring from college coaches","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1260200' first='Kate' last='Datel']","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"12123","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Bixby","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Game Watched: vs Union February, 29thrnrnDatel's profile on Hudl lists her as a SG, but in the contest watched she looked more like a table setting point guard. It started with a great drive and left handed feed to an open shooter along the perimeter. That proved to be a theme throughout, as she drove with the purpose of setting up open shooters or finding teammates near the rim.  Bixby looks to be in a promising spot going forward with quality shooters, and Datel's quality vision setting them up.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["241024"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Game Watched: vs Douglass, March 7thrnrnThe senior was tasked with unenviable job of having to handle the waves of quick pressure that Douglass sent at her. She was the most reliable Lady Longhorn in the contest.  Her quality handles were crucial in her ability to break the press, and also draw fouls with hesitation moves or getting down hill to the rim.  Weast is headed to NEO Au0026amp;M at the next level. While her high school career ended on a poor note, she seems to have the combo of skill and grit to find a four year home after her stop in JuCo.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6601b78e9f8ca"} /-->
